NO FUSS MANDARIN ORANGE CAKE W/ VANILLA COCONUT FROSTING
There are a number of recipes out there for this cake but, frankly, I don't care for the pineapple-vanilla pudding frosting. Coconut is much more my style! Plus, the cake is moist enough without the pudding on top.

Tips:
- Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. Clementines or tangerines can also be used.
- Zest the oranges before juicing them. This will release the flavorful oils from the peel.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- Use a light hand when frosting the cake. A thick layer of frosting can be overwhelming.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
